The phone rang and stopped.
"Grrrrrrgh......" it started again, ringing for the second time.
They both stood up and went to the hallway with Sharron clinging on to him in fear. When they got there, Steve looked at Sharron who only gave him a slight nod indicating he should pick up.
“Hello, Steve Davies on the line" he said in to the phone
"Hey girlie....." Jessy shouted in to the phone. Steve's eyes flashed in anger when he heard the voice and shoved the phone to her chest. “Your girlfriend is calling" he said through gritted teeth and walked out.
"Why now Jess" She groaned into the phone.
You not gonna believe, I met this handsome dude and he's steakingly rich. I wonder what he came to do in this lowlife club" Jessy shouted into the phone to be heard over the blaring speakers.
" And what am I supposed to do with that information?? besides didn't I warn you not to call me?" Sharron asked.
"Save it girl, are you trying to say I shouldn't call when I need someone to talk to? I don't care if you have a husband, I am going to call you anytime I like"
"Jess....." she started
"OMG! OMG!! " Jessica screamed interrupting her. "He's coming over to me, gotta go, see you later, bye" She said in a rush and hung up.
Sharron sighed and shook her head, putting the phone back to its rightful place.
" How am I going to pacify Steve this night?" She thought rubbing her forehead.
"Steve, I'm so sorry" She started as she entered the bedroom. "I warned her not to call me"
"What kind of friend calls a housewife in the middle of the night? He shouted causing her to flinch a little
"You know we're best friends" she said in a small voice
"And me?? Who am I to you? Just your husband? He asked looking in to her eyes.
"No, no" she answered quickly, her eyes wide. "I promise this will be the last time it'll happen" She promised even though she knows Jessica would never listen to her.
"He scoffed and covered himself well with the duvet unfazed.
She climbed in to the other side of the bed and slept leaving a measurable distance between them.
Next morning, Steve prepared for work obviously still angry with his wife. He owns a very big organization that deals with fabric but he goes to work early to lay a good example for his workers. He looked at his wife sprawled out on the bed sleeping and debated whether to wake her or leave her.
Eventually the latter side won.
He walked out of the house and went to his garage eyeing the cars to select which to take work. Looking at the cars, one would know he has a very good taste. He entered his black Land Rover and honked for his gateman to open the gate.
The sound of his car horn was what woke Sharron but before she got to the door, he had driven out, only his car tail headlight could be seen.
" What have you gotten me into Jessica" She muttered under her breath and went back inside to continue sleeping.
